Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 441 - 346 Art Gallery_2
Originally, Li Jing was thought to dislike Shi Yang here, but upon entering the art gallery, Li Jing quietly and seriously appreciated the art pieces for half an hour, which made one slightly surprised and changed the perception of him somewhat.
Unexpectedly, this guy has a touch of artistic talent and is not as shallow as previously thought.
Shi Yang thought so and walked over to Li Jing’s side, seeing him staring intently at a large oil painting.
The painting depicted a war, with numerous gruesome and bloody scenes meticulously sketched out; the theme was clearly anti-war, vividly restoring the suffering people experienced during their escape, which also shook Li Jing deeply.
Shi Yang quietly said beside him, "This should be a piece depicting World War II, most likely painted by a foreign artist.
By the way, there should be a guide specifically for this; if you’re interested, I can help you find one."
Li Jing nodded, indeed showing interest in this piece.
Seeing this, Shi Yang immediately walked away to find a staff member.
Soon, a white woman in work uniform came over, but she couldn’t speak Chinese, and directly spoke in English.
It seems the art gallery assumes invited guests from all sectors of society can communicate in English.
Li Jing’s English is passable, and everyday communication poses no problem, but when it comes to professional art piece introductions, the many specialized terms leave him utterly perplexed.
Shi Yang seemed to sense Li Jing’s confusion, and though Li Jing hadn’t mentioned his language proficiency, she still took the initiative to offer help with translation.
After translating, with Shi Yang’s assistance, Li Jing gained a deeper understanding of the artwork’s connotations, nodding to himself; although the guide couldn’t speak Chinese, her interpretation of the piece was spot on.
Afterward, they continued to appreciate several more pieces.
Li Jing’s gaze fell on a work by a German artist.
Standing next to the piece was a person; initially, Li Jing thought it was a staff member, upon inquiry, he found out it was the artist himself invited to the exhibition.
This artist looked around forty, with a somewhat balding head, a dense beard, wearing casual clothing, exuding the unique, untamed aura of an artist.
Seeing Li Jing and Shi Yang showing a great interest in his work, he enthusiastically began to introduce it.
However, he spoke in German, and many around appeared bemused, clearly not understanding it.
Li Jing thought Shi Yang would, like before, find staff to help with translation, but what followed was somewhat unexpected to him.
Shi Yang directly engaged the artist in conversation in German, with a fluency akin to a native speaker.
Li Jing could barely keep up with some English, but in the face of German, he was completely at a loss, standing silently to the side, unable to contribute to the conversation.
To be fair, Li Jing wasn’t particularly interested in this piece, yet Shi Yang was engrossed, conversing animatedly with the artist.
This was a piece combining painting with craftsmanship, utilizing traditional European techniques, possessing both a beautiful appearance and rich historical substance, no wonder Shi Yang was captivated by it.
Li Jing quietly waited beside them, watching Shi Yang’s eloquent interaction with the artist, suddenly realizing Shi Yang’s comprehensive qualities far exceeded those of any woman he had encountered before.
She was not only proficient in German, English, and several other languages, but also exuded confidence and poise from within, along with a unique charm that could not be cultivated by common families. Clearly, she was the graceful daughter of a prestigious family. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
At this, Li Jing understood why Liu Jun and others were so fascinated by Shi Yang.
Shi Yang was not only strikingly beautiful with an exquisite figure, but the unique charm she possessed was beyond the reach of ordinary girls.
Presumably, the Shi Family had been developing her comprehensive qualities from a young age, resulting in her excellence in various aspects. Perhaps it was this upbringing that shaped her aloof and proud personality.
After Shi Yang finished her exchange with the German artist, with a hint of pride in her expression, she walked back to Li Jing with a brisk step.
She glanced at Li Jing and said, "I’ve been talking over there; would you like me to explain this piece to you?
Besides, there’s a lot more of this artist’s other works; I’ve just talked with him, learned the core ideas behind these creations. If you’re interested, we can go check them out."
Li Jing didn’t particularly prefer these, but since he’d come this far, he figured it wouldn’t hurt to take a look, so he nodded and said, "Alright."
But Shi Yang didn’t immediately start explaining; instead, she shifted the conversation, saying, "If I’m giving you a free introduction, serving as your translator, can I make a request?"
Surprised, Li Jing showed a puzzled expression, not understanding Shi Yang’s intentions.
Seeing this, Shi Yang continued, "If I’m providing free translation for you, not only can I explain this German artist’s works in German, but also those English-explained ones, even the French ones, I can translate them all for you.
If I’m doing all this for free, shouldn’t I be allowed to drop the previous name restriction on you and just call you by your name?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing finally understood Shi Yang’s thoughts completely.
This woman was clearly flaunting her exceptional language skills before him, all along intending to find an opportunity to cancel the previous bet.
